Joseph Parker

No surpise there.....
Joseph did the only thing he could do, and knock out that plodding guy with no head movement
Job well done I guess

So what can we say about that fight

Josephs defence is still suspect
He wasn't great at controlling the distance
He's got power and he's getting more accurate

He was far too classy for Saglem, but he got clipped a few times which concerns me

This has got to stop.

they keep throwing espn around. it was online only, no tv, and it was at 3.15 am pacific time. in other words, even at 3.15 in the morning, espn could not find a slot on tv.

I thought KB was okay with what he said, "could be the best ever heavyweight for NZ, but he's still in his infancy and has a long way to go." Think that was a stab from KB at Tua? Anyway, I'm in Singapore looking for Sham's long lost cousin, so it was good to see the highlights. Parker looked sensational, but that was against average opposition. He did was he was supposed to do. Tupou, if it is Tupou, should give him a better fight in Invercargill. If he does the same to Tupou, he's ready for the top 10.

Just read the write-up. Looked like Parker was fine with his left jab. Very fine. Sure, his right hand did the job, but his jab was good. Maybe he needs to visit Tua for the left hook?

Loved seeing my mate Rebel reffing. Good to see that Revell took the nite off.

Here's the fight in it's entirety. Great ongoing commentary from KB in the corner DURING the fight. Basic, but spot on.

Head movement and keeping that left arm up is what he needs to work on towards the next fight and you do get the impression that KB wasnt overly impressed, but im sure they will go over and will analyze every second of this fight and try and establish new habbits. That handspeed of his is ridiculously insane...
